Many users experience frustrating incidents with mobile applications. However, most
users do not complain about their highly negative incidents to the application providers.
Such dissatisfied non-complainers cause damage to application providers: they tend to
exit, switch, and spread negative word-of-mouth. Therefore, it is important to
understand why mobile users do not complain about their highly negative incidents.
Within information systems (IS), there are no explanations for this dilemma. To address
this gap, we conducted a qualitative study. By utilizing the theory of coping as a
theoretical lens, we generated a mobile-specific theory that comprises problem-focused
and emotion-focused coping strategies as well as control aspects. As a theoretical
contribution, we attempt to advance IS research on post-adoptive behaviors and offer
